Northpole News and Rehab Drug Views

Dateline Northpole. Santas on his way and so are potential reprieves from jail in Florida. Yes some
of you have been very naughty. However, everyone deserves a break. We'll most everyone. http://www.tcoasttalk.com/2009/12/01/police-marijuana-grow-house-found-in-st-lucie-west-two-arrested/comment-page-1/ Excluding those of you with grow
houses and who have been manufacturing drugs and not toys. Let's just say this was the first time
you bought drugs or were found in possession of a small amount, and let's just say this was not
your first sleigh ride. Meaning you were a naughty misdemeanor elf once before for some small matter.The courts will often give you day for day credit for time spent in an inpatient rehab instead
of jail time. So when that mean prosecutor tells you that you must go directly to jail - you should instead go directly to an inpatient rehabilitation facility prior to court! By inpatient, I mean you stay there 24 hours a day. Traditionally the minimum time spent is twenty eight days. However, the longer you can stay the better. These programs range from expensive to cheap to free. Note, the faith based ones are traditionally on the inexpensive or free or sliding scale end. So if you are a high roller, try the Hanley Center or the Watershed in Florida. If you are a Christian, or prefer
faith based, or simply need a cheap rehab, call Faith Farm Ministries, Dunklin or the Crossings on the East Coast of Florida.

Also, should this be your second or so DUI/DWI, and the potential of jail is real, rehab might be
a good option for you. Again, there is no guarantee the courts will accept it, but they often do.
The above rehabs not only have saved my clients lives and made them better people, many times
one's stay there has been critical in no jail being handed down to them. Furthermore, in DUI matters, the Florida statutes say the judge "may," not must, give the client day for day credit at an
inpatient facility.
